Four
6-Figure Transactions Totaling Over $1.1 Million Top This Week's
Domain Sales Chart

Someone mist have missed the
"summer doldrums" memo! Four high end sales lit up
the domain aftermarket this week with three of those not only
topping our latest weekly all-extension Top 20 Sales Chart, but also
crashing the top 20 sales for the entire Year
to Date.

That power trio at the top featured three
band mates that each sold for more than $300,000! PY.com led
the charge at $358,000 as that sale from the second Heritage
Auctions (HA) event in March was finally closed
(Heritage allows winning bidders up to four months to pay). Another
big IP auction house, Hilco
Streambank, locked down the #2 spot with Dots.com
at $320,000. Heritage came right back with another
blockbuster, closing #3 HY.com for $320,000.

In a side note, HY.com was sold by Aron
Meystedt, who, as many of you know, is the Founder and Director
of HA's Domain Name & Intellectual Property Division. Aron's
faith in the system he played a key role in building was rewarded
with that handsome sale.

In yet another solid six-figure sale, Braden
Pollock of LegalBrandMarketing.com
sold #4 Statement.com for a cool $140,000.

Sedo
rounded out the first five with a name that came close to eclipsing
the six-figure mark - GCA.com at $90,000. That is one
of four 3-letter .coms on this week's leader board. MediaOptions
sold #8 OAR.com on the Flippa.com
platform for $28,500, Sedo moved #9 PDN.com
for $27,900 and NameConnect.com
used Flippa to sell #12 AZU.com at $18,000.
Those sales, combined with that pair of two-letter .com
blockbusters, again proved that short acronyms never go out of
style.

The .coms wound up sweeping 15 of
the 20 chart entries with DomainMarket.com
helping the cause through their $40,000 sale of #7 MakeSomeNoise.com.

The ccTLDs carved out three spots
on the elite list with Sedo ringing up all of those. Their country
code trio was led by #10 Open.tv at $25,000.

That left two spots on the Big Board for
the non .com gTLDs. Flippa posted the highest one with #14 Mortgages.info
at $14,095. The second went to Sedo who sold #19 Matrix.org
for $7,999 as they went on to pile up 12 of the 20 chart
entries.

All in all, a very impressive week,
especially when you consider that giant sales venue Go
Daddy/Afternic, is still unable to report sales due to SEC quiet
period rules surrounding Go Daddy's current IPO.

Keep in mind that these are the highest
value cash only sales that have been reported to us in the
past week. This column is meant to be an educational tool,
not a complete list documenting ALL high
value domain sales. Such a list is impossible to produce
because many sales are kept private at the insistence of
buyers, sellers or both. Our procedure for verifying the

The $25,000 sale of Open.tv and
the pair German .de sales that you saw on the all
extension chart above set the pace for the ccTLDs this
week. The highest sale in this category that you haven't seen
yet is #4 on our latest weekly Country Code Top 20 Sales Chart.
That is an Australian domain, TemporaryFencing.com.au,
that was sold at NetFleet.com.au
for $7,026.

A Brazilian domain, Weblink.com.br at $7,000
rounded out the first five. Sedo made that sale and went on to
sweep nine of the top ten and 15 of 20 chart entries overall.
NetFleet.com.au and Golem.eu
each placed two names on the board - with #12 Charge.ch
at $3,000 giving Golem their best entry. Domains90210.com
also earned chart honors with #17 Chili.tv at $2,588.

Germany's .de won the extension
race with six chart entries. Here is how the
country code sales stacked up for the week ending Sunday,
July 20:

The non .com gTLDs were led by their lone
five-figure sale - Mortgages.info at $14,095. That
sale at Flippa, as well as the $7,999 sale of #2 Matrix
org at Sedo, both made the all extension leader board at the
top of this report. The highest sale from this group that you
haven't seen yet is #3 on our new weekly Non .Com gTLD Top 20
Chart - that is BetAmerica.net, a name that Sedo sold
for $5,750.

Two more Sedo sales rounded out the first five -
#4 SisterCities.org at $4,800 and #5 Farming.org
at $4,335. They went on to sweep 13 of the 17 chart
entries (only 17 sales of $1,000 or more were reported in this
category). The other four entries all went to Flippa.

The .nets won the extension race with 7 chart
entries, followed by the .orgs with five. .Info and
.biz picked up two apiece, leaving one spot for .club. Here's how all of the Non .Com gTLD leaders
stacked up for the week ending Sunday, July 20:
